Hi I agree with your 'thoughts' ,when reading about what some people expect when they get to Australia is laughable ,wife works in uk but doesn't want to in Aussie or wants less hours wants4bed house with swimming pool(,never got in uk ) it don't matter where you live if you want something you have to work to get it,and of course it will make a difference where you decide to settle Sydney-Brisbane - Gold Coast-Perth-London- Birmingham- Devon- northeast- northwest,

Hi fisher1,centre link won't ask for the bond until medics and police checks have passed so you'll know your visa is going to be granted when they have proof the bond has been lodged,getting there!!! We used photos and passport to get ten years of travel , would odd weekends count?, good luck!

Hi Phil can you transfer as much as you want to another ausie(daughters)account or is their a daily limit,we are both com wealth,not much information on their website .ruby

thanks Phil,the exchange rate is important and as it ts slowly going down I think it's time to put some away for 2nd vac,if for some reason we don't get visa it wil be in the bank for visits ,we won't be putting house on the market till after meds/ police checks so long time to wait hope rate goes up again by then!!
